This volume covers advances in a rapidly expanding field. This area of science has enabled scientists to shed new light on evolution, development, sensory cell function and hereditary deafness on a gene and molecular level, and to apply these techniques to the understanding of the pathogenesis, prevention and cure of ear disorders. The advent of rapid advancements in cell and molecular biology and genetics is making a major impact in biomedicine and these advances will certainly offer unprecedented opportunities in making new progress in otology. Each chapter is intended to cover reviews on the status of selected areas in mechanoreceptor evolution, developmental biology of the ear, structure and function of the auditory sensory cells, innovative approaches for sensory cell protection, inner ear sensory cell regeneration, and gene-based therapy for sensorineural hearing loss.

Dr. Howard House, founder of the House Ear Institute and House Ear Clinic often uses the analogy of planting a seed when referring to establishing the House Ear Institute in 1946. Two grateful patients of Dr. House put forth the idea that his knowledge and innovative skills could be used to expand the understanding of hearing impairment and its treatment. Those two early patients provided the "seed money" to begin the Institute. Since that time, the growth has been phenomenal from a one-man laboratory to a multidisciplinary facility boasting over 175 scien tists, physicians, and support staff, all dedicated to the advancement of otologic research and education. Six years ago after a half-century of remarkable success with prosthetic and device research, the Institute began cultivating a new field of endeavor-cell and molecular biology. Don Nielsen, then the Institute's Executive Vice President for Research and Scientific Director, began exploring the potential for hair cell regen eration and presented his ideas to the Board of Trustees. For a period of six months, we did a lot of fact finding to assess what role the Institute might take in this excit ing new field.
